Is my 2008 coupe totaled?

I just got in and accident last night and am a bit worried it could be totaled. I took a turn too fast and my passages side wheel hit the curb. My steering wheel and passenger side dash airbags blew. The front subframe is badly cracked and the lower control arm is more than likely done for. Im sure there is other damage too. The fender and wheel will also have to be replaced. I know its up to the insurance company but i want to see what you guys think.

I'd say it's totaled. What's it worth? There's probably $4000-$5000 in just parts and labor for the SRS system.

if it wasn't for airbags I would say you could fix it but I'm guessing it'll be totaled. Labor adds up quick

Yup Totaled!

Did the op have full insurance on it?

It's ten years old

Sorry to see this happened to your Coupe. Every picture was worse than the previous.

Did you lose traction due to high speeds as well as bald tires (see second picture)?

GL with whatever comes next.

It's done. That's a lot of damage from hitting a curb?

lol what were you doing when that happened? Looks like a typical case of trying to drift but understeered strikes again. If it weren't for the airbags you likely could have repaired it but unfortunately that looks like a totaled car.

Looks like a total loss unfortunately. Sorry for your mishap. At least you're ok.

I looked at my car and I said, "Oh brother"
I throw it in the gutter and go buy another.

Ouch! Looks like it was a nasty hit. For the most part, it's totaled. If you don't have full coverage insurance and have to pay out of pocket, you could get a lot of those parts online 2nd hand for much less. Labor is the pain though. Good luck!
